The study aims at determining the development areas and the effect of ebru art training on the development areas of children aged under five attending kindergartens of elementary schools. The study domain consisted of children aged under five with normal development, who attended kindergartens of elementary schools of Ministry of National Education in the central distinct of Ankara. Two kindergarten classes of elementary schools that were determined as not having any art training were included into the study from among the schools of Ministry of National Education in the central district of Ankara. Test and control groups were determined by random sampling from the kindergarten classes. Experimental pattern with pre-test and post-test control was used in the study. Information on children and families participating in the study was collected from the school records and with the used "Family Information Form" developed by the author. "Brigance Early Preschool Screen II", which was adapted to Turkish by Aral et al. (2008), was used to determine the development level of children. Art of ebru training program was prepared specifically for the development characteristics of children aged under five in the study. Prior to application of the training program, Brigance Early Preschool Screen II was applied as pre-test on the test and control groups. Art of ebru training was given to children in the test group for a period of approximately one hour per day for ten weeks with education provided within the framework of the preschool education program of the Ministry of National Education during the remaining education time. Children in the control group continued the preschool education program of the Ministry of National Education. Brigance Early Preschool Screen II was applied as the post-test on the test and control groups after the education program. At the end of this research, it has been determined that group x common effect of scores which are gotten from Brigance Early Development Inventory II Receptive and Expressive Language Development Sub-dimension is significant (p<.05). However, group x common effect gotten from total score and scores obtained from other sub-dimensions of Brigance Early Development Inventory II is not significant (p>.05).
